Same story here: 520 ST, EZRAM-II upgrade, bombed out of a program
repeatedly one evening this week, will not boot properly since (say twenty
cycles through the on-off and/or reset caused it to lighten the screen,
read drive A, bring-up the desktop with a frozen mouse, die with two black
bombs, and four striped bombs; next reset, a constant row of black bombs.

To the net - can someone post a listing of bomb pattern to error code
conversions please  ...  monthly!

To Atari - could you please never introduce a computer manual on the
market again without including an error code listing!
